Saints and Tide alike

I'll tell you, I've never liked the Saints. They remind me of the Crimson Tide of the NFL. The fan bases are so much alike, win at all costs, I'm better than you. Well, nobody else likes the Saints, or the Bamers, but the Bamers.

Cheap shots are problem

Reading about Junior Seau and the concussions, the reason for that, is you have too many cheap shot artists in the NFL. They don't belong in the league.

Props to USA softball

I want to give a shout out to the South Alabama softball team and their sweep of Troy. It was great to see the bleachers full, and all the young women attend the game. It was a wonderful Saturday.

Sue the Saints

I've always been a Saints fan, but I agree 100 percent with the caller who said Favre should sue. I didn't understand that game, saw some of the cheapest shots I've ever seen. He still got up and played. I don't know where the referees were looking. Those shots could've contributed to the stupid play he made at the end, that put the Saints in the Super Bowl.

Don't treat Danica like girl

NASCAR is going to let Danica get away with wrecking Sam Hornish Jr. on the cool down lap, because she is a girl. If you are going to play with the boys, you better get ready to play with the boys.

Play up the Jags

Two days in a row, looking for Jags baseball. At least you didn't put them in the last page. Hometown team, fourth page. Wow.

Football violent game

When you get to the pro football level, I think it is way too late to start thinking about concussions. I have three sons, all play football, at least two have had concussions diagnosed. The other knocked out a few times. It is a tough game, even in little league. I think one of these boys may have been impaired for his adult life, possibly from that injury. Who knows what is happening to these kids that play football from grade school on.

Wants box scores

One of the joys of getting the paper during baseball season was the box scores. Why don't you provide box scores any more?

Braves' pitching no good

I'd like to agree with the caller about the Braves starting rotation: they are terrible. They went with a rotation that can't win. The only good pitching they get is from the bullpen, but it doesn't do them any good, because the game is over by the time they get to them.

Toros on rampage

Spanish Fort baseball, defeats No. 1 Russell County this year, defeated No. 1 Cullman last year. We know the way to Montgomery. Long live the King.

Danica website good

I just want to say how much I love Danica's new website. On the front it asks a trivia question, and every time you answer it right, she loses a piece of clothing, until she gets down to her bikini. I think it is great, and just wanted to share it sound off.
